Today & tomorrow is the only day we can catch crayfish legally. We are catching crayfish with Margoth, Anders & their friends. We plan to camp near the river tonight, so it´s gonna be fun! I am so excited! We will borrow a canoe from Mattias´s dad & Margoth is bringing her own boat. I had prepared some snack to keep us awake the whole night, hopefully we have warm night & great catch.

Crayfish party is a traditional summertime eating and drinking celebration in the Nordic countries. The tradition originated in Sweden, where a crayfish party is called a kräftskiva. The tradition has also spread to Finland via the Swedish-speaking population of that country.

Crayfish parties are generally held during August, a tradition that started because crayfish harvesting in Sweden was, for most of the 20th century, legally limited to late summer. Today, the “kräftpremiär” date in early August has no legal significance. Dining is traditionally outdoors, but in practice the party is often driven indoors by bad weather or aggressive mosquitoes. Customary party accessories are comical paper hats, paper tablecloths, paper lanterns (often depicting the Man in the Moon), and bibs. A rowdy atmosphere prevails amid noisy eating and traditional drinking songs (snapsvisa). It is culturally correct to suck the juice out of the crayfish before shelling it.

Sweden actually imports most of its crayfish, mostly from the American state of Louisiana, Turkey and from China. The imported crayfish are often more expensive than the frozen. To me the frozen crayfish does´nt taste fresh that´s why I am curious about tasting it fresh from the local water.

The crayfish are boiled in salt water and seasoned with fresh dill — preferably “crown dill” harvested after the plant has flowered — then served cold and eaten with the fingers. Bread, mushroom pies, strong Västerbotten cheese, salads, and other dishes are served buffet-style. Akvavit and other kinds of snaps are served, as well as beer.
